Hey ya'll.

I'm lvling an elementalist barb and I *think* a sacred crystal sword Dawn would be a good weapon for a looong time that I can actually make. I'm not very wealthy so I want to use my precious Zol rune wisely. Few questions:
1) What jewels ought I use with the runeword?
2) Is it wise / feasible to be a WW elemental barb? That is, ele weapon, conflux skill maxed for buff, but use WW as main skill? I cobbled this idea together by looking at ladder and reading guides.
3) Any better builds with similar gear I ought to consider instead?

Thanks!

1. Any, really, just look for secondary stats, not for the selectable stats. You can make LOA, and both elemental and WW would appreciate that.

2. IDK, but as long as you can stack enough dex for cold dmg and enough cold pen (100 absolute minimum, 135+ recommended), that might work. Just get 2 belladonnas and try.

3. No one's going to answer this one for you. Play whatever you find to any extent satisfying.

anyone got some a tip / trick on how to limit Shuriken Flurry target range?
I notice sometimes the shurikens target something quite far away (edge of screen) .

while other time, a nearer target doesnt get hit at all.

I think targeting on those skills with semi-homing projectiles (magic missiles, shuriken flurry, banshee, lemures) doesn't often represent where actual damage is going, so this might be a purely visual bug. Waiting for someone from devs to confirm.

Whisper of damned is a world drop
I've found most of mine in IotSS, Vizjun, Khalimgrad
so high mob density zones are good to go

What are spare Set drops good for, once you have reached your char's signet cap? Can't disenchant them, so is there anything productive you can use them for?
